Notes:

May 2002 – Tim Hills: The only tree we could access was this yew, growing in a field about 100m from the church. Its bole had been grazed to a height of 6′. Girth was 17′ 3” (526cm) at 3′.
February 2016 – Paul Wood: Incessant winter rain and persistent strong winds have dealt a blow to many Herefordshire trees. This is one such, with many oak and chestnut neighbours in the park faring no better. A large section has disappeared and girth reduced from the 17′ 3” (526cm) at 3′ recorded in 2002 to 10′ 9” (328cm) at the same height in 2016.
